Weight of Honey

Say I have equal volumes of honey. Two 5 gallon buckets w/ honey up to the same heigth in each bucket. But one is 18.5% moisture and the other is 16.5% moisture. What will 5 gallons, by volume, of 18.5% moisture honey weigh and how much will the same volume of 16.5% moisture content honey weigh?

Any body know? I'll make it a little easier then. Let's say that the bucket of 18.5% moisture content honey weighs 62.5 Lbs. That's 60 lbs of honey and 2.5 lbs for the bucket and lid. How much more will the 16.5% moisture honey weigh?
